Gotham City Impostors

Gotham City Impostors is a multiplayer game unlike any other, giving players the opportunity to rebel against conformity as they customise their own characters. Posing as amateur vigilantes or villains, gamers will create their very own Bats and Jokerz characters using unprecedented customisation options including insane costumes, homebrewed gadgets and a wide range of traditional and imagined weapons. The game features maps and modes inspired by DC Comics' Batman license.

I like my Batman like I like my coffee: dark. Hell, I even think Robin is a travesty -- the campy tone of a Boy Wonder just clashes with a borderline sociopath vigilante. So a game about a bunch of wannabe Bats and Jokerz dressed up in ridiculous, cartoonish costumes and doing battle in an over-the-top shooter had me somewhat skeptical to begin with, and our two-star review of the original paid version did nothing to assuage my cynicism.

I don't think Gotham City Impostors got a fair shake. It's a perfectly competent and enjoyable class-based shooter that I've had nothing but a good time with.

The developer of recently released multiplayer FPS, Gotham City Impostors, has assured fans that it is working on a patch to fix what appears to be a game-crippling bug. Players have been raging in the official forums all week about a glitch that resets their stats to zero... and thus erases all those hard-earned cosmetic costume upgrades. The issue primarily affects users who update their game from the trial version to full release. Monolith has issued a statement recognizing the problem, and informing players that their lost XP can thankfully be retrieved. Read More »

Gotham City Impostors isn't a free-to-play shooter, but it sure feels like one. Even as a $15 purchase, it's a game that's as eager to get you into its cash shop as its paltry five maps, with one of the slowest character customization systems ever to be unlocked by DLC, and matchmaking so poor that getting into a full 6v6 game actually feels like an achievement. I won't offer to eat Spy Guy's green fedora if it doesn't make the F2P jump before Summer, but only because I'm allergic to pixelated felt. Luckily, there's more to Monolith's silly new multiplayer take on the Batman legend than simply buying new pants in which to watch the world burn in style. Read More »
